The female investigator in this video is super safe from ever being trafficked. Good call putting her on that case - reducing the risk. Her beauty is so rare...

Thank you for sharing this good documentary

Very interesting documentary.

Thank you for sharing with us!

May god protect the women in general, I'm gutted to know women are still struggling even in this era.
@
This should be one of the worst jobs in the world for women who do it voluntarily. And for those who are forced into it, it's slavery.

I wrote to so many international agencies including Interpol, ICJ, United Nations to find out how I can VOLUNTEER to help stop human trafficking but did not receive any response! There are lots of people wanting to help and go international in stopping this but don't get opportunity. Too bad! :(
@
Oh what a surprise! Let's punish the women being abused, but the politicians and men in power that create the demand and facilitate the human trafficking are NEVER investigated.

This is not the old era where survival meant just having food. Today, raising a child requires stability, planning, and responsibility. If we lack financial stability and resources, it is unfair to bring a child into a life of struggle and suffering. Life is tough, and opportunities are not guaranteed. Having children is a serious responsibility, not a social obligation.👣

You cannot stop criminals as long as the gain is much higher than the jail sentence.

These people are smart enough to crunch their numbers, if the risk of committing the crime is worth 1 to 10 years of salary gain, there's no brainer.

I laugh every time I hear an excon claiming he or she paid his or her debt to society, no they don't, specially when they had taken an innocent life or they haven't repair the economic damage their actions had caused to others in full.

Career criminals should be locked up for life, they don't produce anything but trouble, and let's make sure they earn the shelter and food they consume in prison.

Saving this so I can watch it later! Thank you for your educational documentaries, dear DW. I am absolutely obsessed with your work. ❤

A minute and 15 seconds in, I know it worth watching.

why don't they take someone who speaks Spanish when they talk to those women? i think it could help with clear communication and investigation

I tried to report a suspected child trafficking home in Ocean Beach San Diego where a drugged 10-year old girl was found laying in the street in front of the house. The police walked her BACK into the house. The guy in the house had the police called on him on several occasions for weird behavior. He had a Disney soundtrack playing in his house loudly non-stop. A grown man. I called every agency and emailed, NOTHING happened!!! Sickening
